Founded in 1976, the Susan Spiritus Gallery has long been a beacon for fine art photography in Southern California. As one of the first women in the country to open a gallery dedicated to the photographic arts, Susan Spiritus helped shape the early landscape of photography as a serious and collectible art form. Her inaugural exhibition, featuring the esteemed American photographer George Tice, set the tone for decades of excellence and enduring artistic relationships. Remarkably, the gallery continues to represent Tice’s work nearly five decades later.
The gallery is known for its carefully curated mix of photographic masters and contemporary innovators. It features vintage and early edition prints from legendary figures such as Ansel Adams, André Kertész, and Ruth Bernhard, as well as modern trailblazers like Camille Seaman, David Burdeny, and Roman Loranc. Representing a global network of talent, the gallery also showcases photographers from across Asia, Europe, and beyond, including Seung Hoon Park of South Korea, Ellie Davies of the UK, and Indonesia’s Hengki Koentjoro.
Susan Spiritus Gallery has established itself as a trusted source for collectors, design professionals, and corporations seeking exceptional photographic work. The gallery offers personalized consultations by appointment, catering to a wide range of tastes and budgets. Whether a collector is searching for hand-colored vintage prints, platinum-palladium pieces, or modern digital works, the gallery provides guidance and expertise every step of the way.
With its international reach and commitment to artistic quality, the gallery continues to play a vital role in promoting photography as both a creative discipline and a valuable collectible. The Susan Spiritus Gallery stands as a testament to the power of vision, longevity, and an unwavering dedication to the photographic arts.
